The Power And Wisdom Of The Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Nov 15, 2024

But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18, NLT) Introduction: Transformed by Truth The cross is central to the ...read more

The Glory Of The Story - 1 Peter 1:10-12 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 29, 2024

Why did the prophets search their own writings? Did they not understand what they wrote? If that's the case, what were they trying to communicate when they wrote it?

The prophets searched Scripture to find out what kind of era it would be when the Messiah would suffer and then be glorified. But they were told that it was not for them to know. We get to participate in this glorious kingdom in the Church (why would a Christian prefer the world to the Church?). ...read more

Christmas - Part 1

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Oct 9, 2020

Time and time again God tried to get His message of love through to His human creation with little response. Finally, when there was no other way, He wrapped up His message in person. Jesus was and is that message.
